This document outlines the pathway for bronchial asthma. It shows that predisposition (genetics) and triggers (allergens, activity, respiratory infections, infections) can lead to abnormalities in the respiratory tract. This activates immunoglobulin E and mast cells to release histamine, causing bronchial smooth muscle contraction. This results in edema, spasms, and mucus, narrowing the bronchial diameter and causing hyperventilation, wheezing, and shortness of breath.
